Abstract: The emergence of deforming regimes is related to the proliferation of nonlinear electrical receivers. The higher harmonics of drawn currents from power systems can be evaluated using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). Unlike Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), which provides only amplitude-frequency information but looses time information, DWT analyses the signal in a time-frequency domain using windows of variable sizes, relative to the frequency band; therefore reducing the computational effort and minimizing the spectral leakage. The operating mode of a static power converter as classic three-phase rectifier with diodes (TPRD) is compared with the modern rectifier with near sinusoidal input currents (RNSIC).
